The
island of Menorca is situated at the Northenrnmost
point of the Balearic Group and is the second largest of the
islands. Several years ago it was named by the European Community
as a Biosphere Reserve. This is the first step to conserving
the natural fauna and flora of the island and an attempt to
keep the effects of tourism on these to a minimum.
Menorca offers its
visitors a place that combines virgin beaches with historic
monuments, small towns and smaller villages, incredible sunsets,excellent
gastronomy with many local dishes, tradicional fiestats and
above all the tranquil pace and peaceful way of life of a
small mediterranean island.
Menorca lends itself best to a quiet family
holiday, where mother nature plays an important part, where
one may explore small coves and beaches with cristal clear
waters, narrow lanes through pine woods or tracks leading
tantalizingly into the distance. Without doubt a little paradise
in which to spend a holiday. |
